At the time I submitted the bug I was probably using a nightly build 
from one to a couple of days before. I guess something somewhere changed 
  between the moment of your checkout revision and whatever revision was 
in the nightly build I used.

I've come to the same conclusion, about the unsafeness of my samples, 
myself. After reading some of the responses on the list here, I changed 
the samples somewhat.

When I changed the string parameters and return values to pchars, i 
could successfully run the samples. And after, just to make sure, adding 
a third dll (I copied dll2 to dll3, and edited dll2 to call a function 
in dll3) it seemed the sample still worked.

So my guess is that the bug is probably invalid and in that case could 
probably be marked as such.
